Intrusive advertising, Golden State @ Cleveland:

[Auggie]

last night, during a free throw, Comcast split the screen to show a La-Z-Boy commercial.

This isn't between the action, as happens in the NFL, but during.

1. The advertising is getting painful

happens in baseball as well.

2. It's also intrusive when

the project the name of a company or a product at the base of the pitcher's mound or along the Plexiglass during a hockey game (although the boards below are all covered in ads too).

But I dislike having something artificially placed on the playing field or the ice surface area that I cannot avoid!
